Chapter 379: The Fiancé Ran Away with the Most Beautiful Girl in the World (4)
A year later, Shu Shichu had mastered the fifth level of Yi Shui Rou Gong, and made himself many different kinds of pills, including piles of drugs that could cause unconsciousness, poison, and insanity. He then felt that he was ready to go out into the world.
Of course, she had to tell her family before leaving. She wouldn't just sneak away with a few guards like the original owner did. Wouldn't that make her family worried?
So she told her family openly: "Mom and Dad, my eldest brother and his wife, and my second brother, I have decided to go out and try my luck in life."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Shu family exploded like a drop of water dropped into a frying pan.
Father Shu: "What? Going out into the world? My daughter, you are right, aren't you?"
Mother Shu: "No! I won't allow you. How can a delicate girl like you go out into the martial arts world? What if you get bumped into by those reckless and barbaric people?"
Brother Shu: "Chu'er, don't mess around. The world is very dangerous."
Sister Shu: "Chu'er, the world is dangerous. If you, a weak woman, go there, you will be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth, right?"
Brother Shu said: "Sister, if you are curious about the martial arts world, I will accompany you later. You just wait for now."
…
The Shu family chattered like crazy. Shu Shichu couldn't help rubbing his ears, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Stop! Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, Second Brother, listen to me, I'm not fooling around, and I'm not ignorant of the world. In the past year or so, I've been practicing martial arts every day. I think I'm a master and I have the ability to protect myself. Ten ordinary men combined can't beat me. If you don't believe me, you can find a master you know to fight me."
After hearing her words, the Shu family was silent for a while, and then the father said, "Chu'er, although you have made some progress in martial arts training, there are always people better than you. Those people in the martial arts world are much better than you. If you go out with your mediocre skills, you will only be beaten."
He thought Shu Shichu's martial arts training was just a small trick, and he didn't believe that she had really become a master.
"Your father is right. I heard that those people in the martial arts world have to practice for more than ten years or even dozens of years to become masters. How can they become masters in just one or two years? Even those talented young talents who started practicing martial arts at the age of three or four have to practice until they are almost twenty years old to become masters. But you have only practiced for less than two years and have never compared with others. How come you think you are a master?" Shu's mother looked at her worriedly and spoke tactfully, but she almost said directly that she had a wrong self-perception of her own martial arts level.
Brother Shu also advised her: "Chu'er, don't be naughty. How many people can you deal with with your fancy moves? Moreover, you are only a teenager and you are beautiful. How can your family bear to let you go to the dangerous world? What if you meet some people with bad intentions? Aren't you making us worried?"
Mrs. Shu nodded repeatedly, agreeing with her husband: "Yes, sister, the martial arts world is not for people like us to venture into. I heard that people in the martial arts world often wipe out entire families, kill people and rob treasures, etc. It's bloody and horrible. How can a little girl like you who has never even seen a chicken being killed endure these things?
So you should stay at home, embroider with your friends, write poetry, and attend banquets, so as to avoid going out to suffer in the underworld."
Shu Shichu had a headache. She felt that being too loved by her family was not good because it would make them overprotective of her. Whenever she wanted to do something adventurous, she would be immediately opposed. It was a sweet trouble.
"Mom and Dad, big brother, sister-in-law, and second brother, let's talk facts. Find someone to fight with me. If there is one person you find that I can't beat, then I won't go out into the world and will stay at home and get married. But if I beat everyone, then you have to agree to my request to go out and fight. How about it?" Shu Shichu asked.
Shu's father and mother looked at each other, and finally agreed to Shu Shichu's request. Shu's father said, "Let's set the date at the beginning of next month. I have to write a letter first to invite the martial arts masters I know to come."
Brother Shu's eyes lit up as well: "Yes, yes, it will take some time for my friends in Jianghu to come over."
So the matter was settled. Shu Shichu had to defeat the gangsters they invited and prove that she could protect herself in the underworld before they would agree to let her leave home.
The beginning of next month soon arrived. During this period, many people came to the Shu family, and it was very lively. Shu Shichu interacted openly with these people from the martial arts world invited by his family, and humbly asked them for advice on martial arts. Of course, the exchange had to wait until the designated day, but just listening to them talk about the martial arts world, Shu Shichu was very interested and listened with great interest.
In less than two days, she had found out almost everything going on in the underworld from these people.
On the day of the official competition, the Shu family's martial arts training ground became lively. In addition to the masters invited by the Shu family, there were also servants who were not on duty who came to watch the fun. Fortunately, the Shu family was considered a wealthy family, and the martial arts training ground was large enough to accommodate so many people, and there was still space left for the competition.
"Chu'er, do you really want to fight?" Shu's father sighed and asked Shu Shichu one last time, hoping that she would change her mind.
"Of course it's true, Dad. Don't worry. When you see my performance later, you'll know I'm not bragging." Shu Shichu said.
"Okay, let's begin." Shu's father had no choice but to announce the start of the competition.
The first one to come on stage was the Shu family's most skilled guard. He was nimble with his hands and feet, but his internal strength was not deep. Shu Shichu only used three moves to strangle him by the neck.
"I lost." The guard got up from the ground with a red face, admitted defeat and left in a hurry.
Shu Shichu looked at his family members sitting beside him with a smile, while the Shu family members were stunned. They obviously did not expect that their daughter/sister could really defeat the most powerful guard in the mansion.
But after thinking about it, the guards in the mansion were only guarding against ordinary people and robbers and thieves, and they were not powerful figures. Although it was unexpected that Chu'er could defeat him, it was not really powerful, so Shu's father coughed lightly and said, "Continue!"
Then came the martial arts masters, bodyguards and bounty hunters who were invited back from outside. Shu Shichu defeated them one by one without any surprise. The Shu family members had gradually gone from being shocked at the beginning to being accustomed to it, and then to being used to it.
The only ones left were the martial arts masters that Shu's father had invited back through letters and the chivalrous warriors that Shu's second brother knew.
Liu Yanzhi, the chivalrous warrior whom Second Brother Shu knew, looked at Shu Shichu, whose cheeks were red from the fight, and said to Second Brother Shu in amazement: "Brother Shu, your sister is really skilled. She is already considered a third-rate expert in the martial arts world."
Shu Shichu did not use her full strength when facing her previous opponents, but Liu Yanzhi mistakenly thought that this was her true strength, so he said that she was a third-rate master.
But only after he officially fights with Shu Shichu, he will realize that Shu Shichu's martial arts level is more than third-rate.
